Ampullaria have some of the most unique looking pitchers in the entire genus - like a nest of yawning eggs! I am so excited to add this incredible plant to my collection.

From Borneo Exotics: "This clone has the pitcher body colouration of N. ampullaria ‘Harlequin’ but with a peristome that is mostly a striking lime-green. Out of 157 clones introduced into microprop of a cross between N. ampullaria ‘ Brunei red’ and N. ampullaria ‘Harlequin’ this was easily the most interesting result. We’ve given it the cultivar name N. ampullaria ‘Lime Twist’."
